2014 K2 Shreditor 120s [169 cm, 147-120-141] w/ Marker Baron bindings. $400 cash or PayPal (firm) ...getz yer POW sticks! Skied only 10ish days in these, so they're still fresh. A few nicks on sidewalls\top sheet but otherwise tip-top. Bases are clean with some minor scuffs. Bindings are set up for a 8.5 US\41 EU boot, can be adjusted. Marker Baron's ski like an alpine binding and can also convert over to uphill mode if you're touring.

Selling my DPS Wailer 105's (Hybrid). 178 cm length, mounted with men's size medium Marker Baron bindings. The Barons ski like an alpine binding but convert over for touring. A few cosmetic dings on the skis, mainly on the top sheet. Nothing ballistic on the top sheet or base that affects performance. See photos below. Marker Barons accommodate any alpine boot. You do not need the Dyna-fiddle compatibility. If you have a ski boot, you can use the Barons. Skied these for 2 seasons and liked them. Most of their experience was front side with the occasional ducking under the rope for a side stash. Think I put in maybe 3-5 actual backcountry sessions on them. Got some new skis this season, so the Wailers are no longer needed. Here's a link to a review from Powder. Apparently DPS doesn't list the 105 description on their factory web site since converting this model to a 99cm waist ( Wailer 99). Or at least I'm not able to find the damn 105 page. Logistics: 178 cm length 135-105-118 Marker Baron (men's Medium) bindings $350 (firm) Contact me at prayemail@gmail.com if interested Disclaimers: 1. I don't know if their the right length for your height, please do not ask 2. I don't know if the bindings will fit your boot, please research the Marker Baron (men's medium) and figure it out 3. Please don't contact me if you plan to low-ball an offer, am selling for the price listed Couple top sheet knicks Far binding is converted over to tour mode. With the Barons, you have to step out of the binding to convert from downhill to tour mode (fair warning) This Lion emblem on the tail tells everyone else on the mountain that you are not fucking around

Selling my ArcTeryx Needle 35, Men's Small, $35. Been used for four-ish years mostly for alpine and ski day trips. Serviceable for both purposes. Santa brought me a new new BD ski pack, so I'm just looking to clear a little closet space. Small tear near top (see pic below), but otherwise nothing is structurally wrong.

Selling my Osprey Variant 52, Men's Medium, $75. Purchased last winter and used for something in the neighborhood of 5-ish trips. I ran across a sweet deal on an ArcTeryx Khamsin, so it doesn't make sense to have two packs of (mostly) the same size. No rips, tears, broken buckles, etc. Other than the odd cosmetic blemish, there's nothing structurally wrong.

Ed, Greg, and I teamed up for a successful run up Liberty Ridge this past weekend. Favorable conditions have recently spiked the popularity of this route, so I'll spare you all the self-aggrandizing detail. In a nutshell, the lower ridge appears to be quickly nearing the end of it's season as the snow is quickly thinning. Upper mountain conditions continue to be nearly ideal. There's a moderately spicy problem (we set 3 screws) when crossing the bergie and a short section of ice (~30ish feet of low angle traverse) above the 'schrund before gaining the ridge to Liberty Cap. Ed took an interesting approach to this route and had us travel to the N Pickets and use the bushwhack up (and down...) Access Creek as a trainer to prepare for Liberty Ridge. But, that's a tale best told on another post. Enough of this crap. On to the good stuff... Overlay of our route Liberty Ridge from the west Working our way up the ridge Approaching Thumb Rock Team on Liberty Cap Mt. St. Helens from Liberty Cap Descending to the Winthrop ...and finally, a shot from our trainer 'schwacking Access Creek. Greg's expression pretty much says it all.
